Hi Jo,
There are two Cruickshanks buried at Rhynie, Jane and Elsie and three Peter Cruickshanks buried at Clatt. The Clatt MI's are unpublished. The stones at Clatt are:
Stone 42 - Peter CRUICKSHANK 12 Aug 1858
Jane " 12 Apr 1877
Peter " 02 Apr 1888
Jessie ANDERSON 03 Oct 1888
George CRUICKSHANK 21 Nov 1904
Stone 41 -Jane FORBES 03 Dec 1850
Peter CRUICKSHANK 03 Aug 1857
John " 29 Aug 1877
Christian SMITH 11 Oct 1907
If 'your' Jane's name appears on a stone it will be under her maiden name. This is the custom in Scotland.

Thankyou Isles,
So good of you to do me this favour..
Jo :) :)

Isles, I am glad you gave me the PM....
I would have missed your additions..
great ...Jane forbes is the right Jane...with Peter...so she died 1850....John was their son...and I think Christian was his wife....
thankyou..again....
Could I be so bold as to ask if you could see a George Cruickshank and Elizabeth Dunbar?
maybe from Methlic....this could be in the late 1700's or 1800s
if this is to hard...please don't worry..
regards,
JO

Hi again Jo,
There are George/Georgie Cruickshank inscriptions at Methlick but both are relatively modern:
Stone 334 - Georgie CRUICKSHANK No date given
Fanny " 08 Apr 1928
George " 29 Sep 1950
Agnes LEASK 03 Oct 1950
Daisy CRUICKSHANK 19 Nov 1973
I could not find an inscription for Elizabeth Dunbar. Let me know if there are any other churchyards in which you think they might be buried.
Isles.

Thanks Isles,
I think that I made an error with Methlic...
I could follow that family now..into the 1800s and they are not the ones...
soooo..Elizabeth Dunbar is the mother of the above Peter..maybe it is near Clatt.
In the 1851c Peter Cruickshank said born 'Sauchen'...on Ancestry....they say "hard to read..."
so maybe that is Strachen.. but not sure.

The inscriptions are in the unpublished section for members only. Photographs are on Findagrave #116035214

I wouldn't have said that Methlick is near Clatt in 18th century terms - 26 miles apart
In the 1851c Peter Cruickshank said born 'Sauchen'...on Ancestry....they say "hard to read..."
so maybe that is Strachen..
It might actually even be Sauchen which is nearer than Strachan - 24 miles fom Methlick and 18 miles from Clatt. Best to check the original on SP and make up your own mind.
